Stand Children’s Services staff members run the shop at yesterday’s jumble sale at the old children’s village in Roxburgh which announced it was closing last year.

The jumble sale run by Stand Children’s Services offered the community everything from children’s toys to picture books, booster seats, clothing and computer games.

A new Alexandra office for Stand will open in May.

Regional operations manager Dwight McDowell said the day was ‘‘the end of an era and the beginning of a new future’’.
